You've touched on a profound philosophical question about the status of logical axioms.
Is there judgment involved in accepting logical axioms?
Yes, though in a distinctive way:
- We don't typically arrive at logical axioms through empirical investigation
- They feel self-evident or "given" in a way other judgments don't
- Yet accepting them still involves a kind of meta-judgment about what constitutes valid reasoning
